second red skull was defeated but they boarded two of my heaviest ships :((((which i then had to kill ,basically impossible since they boarded the best ships of the fleet in a VERY short time

AND THEN MY SHIPS split AND RAN :(((( also LOL
i chased one down with the 2 frigates i had left ,
now have 3 ships left , 2 are mine 1 is not (boarded)

something strange happened , i left the map with the 2 frigates under my control saying hey ill just try again ,

then i got stuck .. could not do a thing---- my boarded ship didn't leave the map or die so i couldn't leave
so i used the onscreen main menu button ,it pushed me out to main menu
resumed the discovery session and bam i was outside the station with pirates closing in , i ran to the nearest mothership with the loot .
